Padres rough up Heath Fillmyer as Royals’ split-squad team loses 10-5

Naturally, right-hander Heath Fillmyer will want to dwell on his start Saturday in the Royals’ split-squad team’s 10-5 loss to the Padres.

Fillmyer allowed seven runs on nine hits in 3 1/3 innings with two walks and a pair of strikeouts. But he said lessons can be learned when things don’t go well, too.

“I take ... what I can out of it,” Fillmyer said. “Take the positives out of it and work with it and try to get better and learn from the bad. Just try and go out there next time with a clear head and clear mind and do what I can to win a ballgame.
